A seated audience of devotees fills a hall with red carpeting, looking up toward the front. In the foreground a woman in a white dress with a white shawl and wire-rimmed glasses sits beside a woman in a blue sari and a woman in a turquoise and gold outfit with a lanyard badge. A bald man in a white shirt and white trousers sits with his hands resting on his knees, and a woman in white with a long rudraksha mala looks upward. Behind them rows of attendees in white, pink and teal clothing sit among tripod stands and camera equipment.

A photograph of a crowded indoor hall with white walls and tall colourful woven banners hanging on either side. Dozens of people stand and sit on a red carpet, many in traditional Indian attire such as saris, salwar kameez and kurtas in pink, red, green and blue. Several women in the foreground sit in white clothing with beaded malas, one wearing a yellow headband, and a bald man in white at the lower left sits beside small brass or steel offering bowls. Attendees appear focused toward the front of the room.

A large indoor hall filled with seated devotees, mostly women, in orange and white clothing during a satsang gathering. In the foreground, a woman in an orange sari with a rudraksha mala raises her palms in devotion, with a white vertical tilak on her forehead and a red bindi. Beside her, a woman in white with a brown rudraksha mala covers her face with her hand, and an older woman in orange with a long rudraksha mala sits with hands folded. Other participants in white and orange clothing, some with white forehead markings, fill the rows behind them under overhead lights.

A photo inside a bright showroom with white walls and a glossy floor. In the centre, a man in a white shirt and grey trousers bends forward to place a garland over the head of a seated man in white clothes with an orange saffron shawl and a garland of flowers, who is seated low in a chair-like pose with hands near the floor. Nearby, a woman in a red and gold silk sari with gold jewellery and bangles stands at left, and a man in a white shirt stands beside her. A man in an orange shawl stands behind, and a man in white with rimmed glasses and a gold wristwatch stands at the right edge. Several other men in white shirts and dark trousers stand in the background near the entrance. Petals are scattered on the floor and a glass-fronted display area is visible behind them.

A large audience of roughly 60 people sits in rows of tiered auditorium seats, facing forward toward a speaker seen only from behind in the lower right, with long dark hair and a white garment, a microphone on a stand in front of her. Audience members wear varied clothing: a woman in a pale blue shawl, a woman in a bright pink top, a woman in a sage-green cardigan, a man in a grey shirt, and a woman with red hair in a teal jacket. The room has warm reddish-brown walls and orange-upholstered seats.

In the foreground a woman in a white sari sits beside an orange-and-gold cloth bag. Behind her a woman in a lilac top and white pants looks ahead, and a man in a grey shirt and dark trousers sits at right. Several people have hands raised to their faces or clasped in attention. No one at the front of the stage is visible, and no a person candidate appears in this frame.

A large seated gathering of women in an indoor hall, many wearing white or cream saris and kurtas with gold borders and rudraksha malas. In the foreground a smiling woman in a white top and light blue trousers sits cross-legged, and beside her a woman in a red saree with gold trim laughs. A woman in a blue saree and a woman in a white top with gold border smile in the lower right. Behind them rows of attendees sit on white plastic chairs and mats, some with white head scarves, others with bindis and tilaks. A small boy in a blue shirt appears at left. The room has a glass display case and yellow-cream walls. No speaker or deity is visible in this frame.

A dense crowd of devotees sits with palms pressed together in namaskar and eyes closed in prayer, a photo taken at a Kailaasa temple inauguration event. Women wear saris in orange, yellow, red, green and magenta, with rudraksha malas and gold necklaces. Men wear white kurtas and some saffron tunics, with white-clad devotees behind. Many are seated close together in an indoor hall with a glimpse of stage equipment at the top. No individual is clearly identified as a person in this frame.

Several women laugh and smile, including a woman in a white dress and white shawl at front left, a woman in a deep maroon top, and a woman in a pale blue top with a red-beaded mala. Standing people and seated attendees fill the background. No clearly identifiable a person figure is visible in this frame, so the a person field is set to none.
